Ontario BS Thread

I was a good boy today, and resisted the urge to be out on the trails. Tomorrow though, omg I cant wait.....

Went up to the auto shop and unmounted my winters from the rims. Put em on Kijiji as well.

Wont be using those anymore!

 

Interesting...when @Bobcdn came picked up mine @3JOH22A hand me downs his first statement looking at them commented on how they are thicker than the factory 2nd gen

 

The EL096 are supposed to be for extra weight...it says... And, they're not cheap. Thanks for the info.

 

Yes they are. That's why I got them. I know I was going to need that extra strength. Need to go to a shop and see if they can add a leaf instead of replacing the whole thing.

 

Time for chevy swap... cheaper in the long run and stronger

 

I think @pete37 can get you a set of these ,
OME (

$44 EL46XL EXTRA LEAF SPRING

EL46XL x2) it's a add a leaf to make a medium leaf pack into a heavy duty pack or to make a heavy duty pack into extra heavy duty,

I kind of lost faith in the OME for quality. The springs sagged way too early for my opinion and spending more to add a leaf makes me think that will sag too.

SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL!

 

Nothing that I can see besides being Prime

 

I was just using one for checking the Trans Fluid Temp last night and the bloody think displayed fuck all about anything. Piece of junk IMO.


my OBD2 monitor that links with my phone using Torque Pro, and it actually showed the TF temp...
Used the guide i posted earlier to put the truck into temp check mode and both the truck and the phone were in sync.

 

You have to put the proper code. I have to read outs. One after the cooler and one at the pan of my transmission.

 

I wanted one to have constant egt, tft and charging. Not eager to use the phone for that all the time...

 

It showed info on the basic stuff, RPM milage fuel levels, etc which matched the phone monitor, but the one thing/ value i needed - it didn't display, so i was frustrated over it.

If it's a good product and i'm the only one saying i hate it, then it's probably just user error, take every thing with a grain of salt

 

You didn't look into it enough then lol. You need to use the x gauge portion. Plenty of post on here how to get it to display.

Maybe isn't as easy but when you know how to set it up (which isn't hard to find out on here and a quick Google search) it's a great gauge.

A few of us here run them and they're pretty well known.

Plus the instruction book explains where to go on their website for the x gauge codes to display more
